Wow! I was going to say that there is no way to get the whole flirting thing across here as you can write a book on it....

But Molly has written it up great!

The only think I will add is to sit and watch other people. I was the ugly duckling in my school so I was able to sit and watch all the other girls flirting with guys and remain invisible.

Have a look at what works and what looks stupid and go from there.

Good Luck!! xx

molly4 agony auntBe conscious of your appearance. Possibly the most important rule to remember when flirting with any guy! No, this does not mean you need to look like a stunning doll. Not every guy wants a Barbie girl. It means that you should be elegant and clean looking. You don’t need to be drop dead gorgeous. Be sure that you shower and clean yourself regularly. You should also wear deodorant, clean your ears, brush your teeth and hair, and you could try to paint your nails. Also, try to wear your hair in a style that makes you feel pretty and complements your facial structure and use a perfume that smells sweet, but is not too overpowering. Being conscious of your appearance also means you have to have some level of fashion sense. Makeup is supposed to touch up your appearance, not hide it. Some eyeliner and lip gloss are all you need to play up your appearance and make you look fabulous. But don’t get too caught up in your appearance, there are plenty more things you need to know.

Act Right-

There are multiple ways to act flirty, here are some of the best suggestions:

Compliments-

Be sure to compliment them in a casual and friendly way on things that are true. Sometimes people will make up compliments just to talk to someone, but that is the total wrong thing to do. You really should compliment on things you really like, so you sound more sincere naturally. Some times complimenting their family or other things they are proud of works.

Intense Eye-

The intense eye is a trick that models spend years perfecting. You must give your hottie an intense stare that is both sexy and mysterious at the same time. BUT DON'T BE CREEPY. Also, try staring at the floor and slowly raising your eyes, looking directly at him. Once you have caught his attention, give him a sexy but subtle smile. You should try practicing the look in the mirror, and if completed correctly you should feel as sexy as a celeb.

Eyelash Batting-

This trick is one of the oldest tricks known to woman. It gives you a sweet and vulnerable factor, which guys love because it makes them feel powerful. Remember to practice this if you intend to use this technique.

Hair Flip and Twirl-

If you want to catch a guys attention, flip your hair casually over your shoulder, twist it and then untwist it, tuck it behind your ears, or run your hands through it.

Soft Giggle and Smile-

According to polls, a laugh and a smile are the sexiest things a female can wear. If you perfect your smile and laugh to be seductive and sweet, you will find some great results. Practice forcing a natural smile and laugh, it can help through awkward situations.

Magic Touch-

You can learn to brush a guy in such a way that you send tingles up and down his spine. Casually tap him while laughing, rest your head on his shoulder if you’re tired and hold his hand when you're nervous; it will give him a sense of manliness and you a touch sweetie-pie, no pun intended. NOTE: A perfect, subtle way to touch him without just reaching up and grabbing his arm or something is to brush imaginary fuzz off of his shoulder or something, or fix his sweatshirt string, or pick an imaginary hair off of his shirt. Totally subtle and initiates comfortable boundary-crossing in an innocent manner.

Approach him and start a conversation, but don't make it too obvious that you like him. If he approaches you, look him in the eyes as a sign of affection and confidence.

Try to touch him whenever you can, on his arm or wherever else (make it appropriate, for now). Don't make it too obvious.

Just barely touch his left shoulder as you reach for something or whisper into his left ear. the left side is linked with the right brain, which is more in tune with emotions.

Play with your hair or clothing.

Once you've got his attention, look him in the eyes and smile. If he smiles back, slowly look down, and repeat. Guys like girls who can show off their smile.

Don't make it too obvious when he's around his friends, unless you know that he likes you.

Laugh with him, and help him to feel comfortable around you.

Find a reason to whisper something in his ear.

Don't try to be someone you aren't. You attract the kind of person you are. For example, don't pretend to be a jock when you're really a poet.

Talk about what you have in common, and ask questions about what you don't. Boys love talking about themselves.

End it by saying "I have to go but hopefully I'll see you around soon," or something else you feel comfortable with. The point is make it clear that you're leaving, but if he's interested, he's welcome to pursue you...if you're feeling bold, you can give him your number, or even get his.

If he's interested in you, don't just go immediately to "best friends" or "boyfriend." Just start hanging out with him, and become friends, slowly become best friends, until it becomes even more! You want to make sure it is the right guy for you, and you know what he likes in you!

If you are shy then you definitely don't want to rush things. Find any excuse you can to be close to him. If flirting isn't your thing, practice! Then you won't feel awkward when its your turn to step up to the plate!
